In this paper, the author presents the developments in progress at the present time in France concerning the high voltage (HV) and extra-high voltage (EHV) cables with synthetic insulation and their accessories up to the 500 kV range. The authors have adopted a maximum operating field strength approaching 16 kV/mm (405 V/mil) for low density polyethylene (LDPE) insulated cables. The on-going studies should allow to bring the maximum operating field strength for crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation from 7 to 10 kV/mm (180 to 255 V/mil) and cables could be manufactured more economically with this material.
